Abstract:

Poorly cohesive gastric carcinoma currently constitutes a full-fledged histological type, defined by a percentage of isolated cells more than 50% dispersed in a fibrous stroma. Its revealing clinical symptomatology is often non-specific. We report the exceptional case of a patient admitted to the emergency department for acute pancreatitis, whose etiological investigation of its cause discovered a poorly cohesive gastric carcinoma with secondary rectal location.
